' bishop ' in the later sense, his position in the earliest tradition is so prominent that he must in fact have been what would have been designated in later times by that name. 1 He merges his own authority, as he writes, in the Church which he represents, but in the Church z not in the presbyterate, and the letter therefore affords no evidence at all as to Clement's relation to the other church officers. Thus, if
...we could get behind the scenes, we should probably find that the chief authority really belonged to him, and that he was one of those ' men of reputation, ' one of those ' rulers, ' who since the Apostles' death had exercised that part of their ministry which was to become permanent in the Church. One of this order must, we should suppose, always have existed in so eminent a Church as Rome.
